Holster options for low rise jeans


I’m signed up for the class to get my CCW permit next month and I’ve started to look at holster options for after I receive my permit.I typically wear low rise jeans (Wrangler Retro boot cut) or walk shorts. With my body shape, tall (6’2”) and a bit overweight (210 lbs), it looks like appendix carry will be my best best. I’ve got a holster for my Shadow Systems XR920 and for my Sig P365XL. Standing they conceal very well, but are uncomfortable while sitting (they push into my pubis). I feel like if the clips were a little lower, then they would be a lot more comfortable.Any recommendations? via /r/CCW https://ift.tt/P2OSjGh

CCW firearm regs vs HTH weapons


I'm really not sure where to post this, so suggestions are welcome. Within the U.S., is there an explanation for the regulation of things like concealed knives and knuckle dusters that makes sense in light of the comparatively lax gun laws and constitutional carry?Context: I have a Walther PDP compact, but since I have a background in boxing, brass knuckles are an attractive back up. via /r/CCW https://ift.tt/W0ufEXY

update to how I really stepped in it, re: concealed carry at work


First, thanks everyone who read my wall of text, and took the time to respond. I appreciate it.​Yes, I am VERY well aware now of the benefit of keeping my mouth shut. I'm not telling any new people I carry, unless it is a direct question by law enforcement. Just not going to lie to cops.​Yes, I know my work is banana crackers. I haven't left yet because my husband works there too. He has a LOT of health concerns, and they have been very accommodating of letting us have the time and bandwidth we need to handle that. Yes, I have gotten plenty of invitations to apply through job sites, but they all seem to be even deeper in the heart of the city where we currently work.The city where we work saw a record number of rapes and murders in 2020, again in 2021, and on pace to set another record this. The per capita crime rate compared to the national average, is terrifying.​My bosses shall now be Clueless Carry, and Anti 2A.Had a meeting with Anti 2A, with my husband as a witness. He claimed to be "absolutely terrified" at the prospect of me carrying. (Someone he has known for 20+ years, and always says is reliable and dependable.) I asked him to tell him, with specificity, why other people could carry at work, but not me. No one has ever carried at Work!Remember when the pregnant lady was stabbed across the street? Yes. Remember the meeting the next day when were were all told that (now former) Coworker and Clueless Carry would be carrying? No. Well me, and all other long-term employees do.​After a few truly idiotic suggestions, we landed on Work will buy me a handgun safe to keep at my desk, and only I am to have access to it. Clueless Carry is not to know the combination. Clueless Carry had this idea that he might need to use my weapon in case of emergency. I'll let my husband touch my piece, but that's it.​Still considering keeping my pistol in that safe or a pistol.​But thanks everyone for helping get my thoughts clear! It actually was very helpful.​EDIT: I don't think I need to change my carry position. All bosses know is that I want to carry on my person, under my clothing. Which really doesn't narrow it down. YOU all know more about my setup than anyone outside my husband. via /r/CCW https://ift.tt/Z2j0AnY

Padded IWB like the Black Arch Protos-M, but for light-bearing?


Is there a good two-clip padded/ventilated IWB holster like a Black Arch Protos-M that supports pistols with lights? I emailed Black Arch; they don't make light-compatible Protos-M because something something retention. I have a Vedder ComfortTuck that's... OK, I guess, but it doesn't feel as comfortable or solid as the Protos-M and the clips are spaced really far apart which makes it difficult to wear with jeans that have a leather belt-loop patch on the back. It also lacks the sweat guard ventilated padding/reinforcement.Any suggestions along those lines for a MR920 (G19 gen4 compatible) with threaded barrel, RMR, TLR-7A? via /r/CCW https://ift.tt/pc7DiAX

Where do we even start?
